About This Workshop
Skillshare teacher Rich Armstrong
Ready to set your creative business dreams in motion? This is your chance! You’ll start by loosening up. Put pen to paper, create something fun, and build some momentum. Then, explore what it means to turn that creative drive into a true work-from-home lifestyle. Use those things 9-5ers call weaknesses and turn them into strengths! Finally, take that new confidence and get serious about planning and time management. Learn how a creative entrepreneur structures the day, week, month, and year to achieve creative goals, build an income, and find true work/life balance. Equal parts fun, creative, and practical, this workshop is great for aspiring creative entrepreneurs at all levels.
Workshop Timeline
- Milestone 1: First, join illustrator, animator, and product designer Rich Armstong in Just Start: Five Exercises that Lead to Big Wins. This class is all about starting that project you’ve been thinking about, and continuing to start it each day. Rich walks you through 5 practical exercises to help you clarify where you want to get to, what steps you need to take right now, and how to make it easy to start, day after day.
- Milestone 2: Next, join illustrator Amarilys Henderson in Work from Home as a Creative. Amarilys believes creatives work differently, and that’s a good thing! Learn how to find your own style of efficiency through focus management, finding flow, and aligning your passion and energy with your work goals. Share your new schedule in the Project Gallery by October 16th.
- Milestone 3: Last, join surface pattern designer Bonnie Christine in From Focus to Flourish: Productivity Skills for the Creative. Take what you’ve learned from Rich and Amarilys -- how to get started each day, and managing your focus and flow -- and build out an approachable plan for your year. Bonnie walks you through everything you need to consider as you work towards building a manageable and sustaining business. Share your BIG goal in the Project Gallery by October 26th.
